Traveling By Train Alone
Hi everyone
It's my story
I hope you guys enjoy
At 1 am at that time I slept in my friend's rented house because the next day I planned to move boarding. I was a little delirious, the sound of the cellphone vibrating repeatedly and that's why I woke up for a moment. I opened my cellphone, and it turned out that sad news filled my what's up chat room. Everyone tried to tell me that my uncle from my father's family had passed away. I who was still sleepy thought it was probably just a dream and continued to sleep well until 4 pm.
The dawn call to prayer sounded, I woke up and checked my cellphone again, and apparently it wasn't a dream. My uncle actually died. I was very surprised to hear this. But I couldn't go to the funeral home and to my uncle's grave right away because I had to change boarding houses according to the plan. I finally decided to go there 7 days after his death by train.
Usually I traveling by train with my friend but it's my first time traveling by train alone. I booked the ticket 3 days in advance online.
The sun is very hot. It seems that the temperature in Tulungagung is very unfriendly. I have to hurry to the train station with the grabike, I ordered online on the grab app. When I got to the station, there were a lot of people crowding around. I was confused about what to do while waiting for the train to depart. I met the same person who was waiting for the train to leave. She turned out to be a collage student from the campus where I studied. We talked for quite a while. The train was about to leave, I looked for the train carriage that I had booked earlier. It was a coincidence that She and I were in the same carriage and opposite seats even though we had never made an appointment before.
By the way, I almost forgot that there are online classes. So, I joined a class on gmeet while on the train. This is my first time doing this too. Too bad, joining online classes on the train was very inconvenient. The internet signal on the train is very bad. So I can't focus when taking online classes. Besides, the sound of the train running makes me can't concentrate. Looks like I won't be repeating joining online classes on the train again T_T
Once there, the online class also ended. I am very relieved. After that I rushed to my aunt's house with a grabike again. Grabike really helped my trip this time. When I got there, my father's extended family had gathered. I offer my condolences to my aunt and apologize for only coming there 7 days after my uncle's death.
That's All my story
See you next time


Sorry for your loss. Rest in love, Sahda's uncle.
BalasHapusYou're brave enough. For the first time, it feels strange riding by train alone. If twice, we get used to it.
Don't worry about it.
HapusYeah you're right.
Sorry to hear that
BalasHapusMay Allah give him jannah
Rest in peace uncle
Aamiin
HapusInalillahi wa innailaihi raji'un, sorry for hear that, rest in peace.
BalasHapusYou did a good job mba sahda, you are not afraid to go home alone🤍
Actually I'm afraid but Alhamdulillah I met with a nice stranger on the train so, I'm not afraid anymore.
HapusSorry to hear the loss of your uncle. I supplicate to Allah for forgiving all your uncle's mistakes and sins, accepting all his good deeds, and providing the best place for him. OK, keep writing and keep sharing.
